The Society for Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics Clinical Practice Guideline for the Assessment and Treatment of Children and Adolescents with Complex Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: Process of Care Algorithms
Abstract
IMPLEMENTING THE COMPLEX ATTENTION-DEFICIT/HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER GUIDELINE: PROCESS OF CARE ALGORITHMS To facilitate implementation of the Society for Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics Complex Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Guideline1 and its 5 Key Action Statements, the Guideline Panel developed the Process of Care Algorithms. As described in the Guideline, these algorithms reflect the consensus, expert opinion of the Panel, as well as a careful review of the existing literature and other available practice guidelines. Because there is insufficient evidence to allow for a prescriptive approach, each of the algorithms include suggested steps that are related to the Key Action Statements and that incorporate the key concepts from the Guideline (i.e., focus on functional impairment to improve long-term outcomes, psychosocial treatment as the foundation for treatment of complex ADHD, shared decision-making, interprofessional care, appropriate use of psychological testing and mental health diagnostic assessment, recognition and treatment of impairments due to coexisting conditions, and a life course perspective). The Society for Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics (SDBP) Complex ADHD Practice Guideline was developed to improve the subspecialty level care of children and adolescents with “complex ADHD” by professionals with specialized training and/or experience. Therefore, the algorithms do not include basic information such as lists of diagnostic crit…

Our findings support recently issued treatment guidelines from the AAP and SDBP that emphasize multimodal treatment including appropriate educational interventions and accommodations as the preferred first-line approach for children with ADHD.
“Our findings support recently issued treatment guidelines from the American Academic of Pediatrics (AAP) and Society for Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics (SDBP) (Barbaresi et al., 2020; Subcommittee on Children and Adolescents with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactive Disorder, 2019), both of which emphasize the importance of multimodal treatment that includes appropriate educational interventions”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
